Description

Osprey Lodge is a traditional stone built property recently developed out of a 200 year old coach house and stables to create a luxury interior with a double height sitting area featuring a large westerly facing window that opens onto the patio. You can enjoy the stunning views both from inside and out. The hot tub is the perfect place to take it all in or when it is dark you can just enjoy the stars.

The lodge is surrounded by rivers, wetland, the Cairngorm mountains and a vast array of wildlife. From your doorstep you can immediately access beautiful walking paths through the RSPB reserve as well as excellent mountain biking and cycling routes together with Munro bagging, climbing and skiing on the Cairngorms.

Internally the lodge is modern and tastefully furnished in Anta and Bute Scottish quality fabrics, with extremely comfortable beds as well as having a well equipped kitchen.

Only 5 minutes from Kingussie and 15 minutes from Aviemore, Osprey Lodge is perfect for a get together, an adventure holiday or a quiet relaxing break. Dogs (2 max) are welcome.
